'In my opinion the drama of today is in a rut and full of prejudices and conventions...When I watch these great & talented people, these high priests of a sacred art, depicting the way people eat, drink, make love...when I hear them trying to squeeze a moral out of the tritest words and emptiest scenes, when I am presented with a thousand variations on the same old thing, the same thing again & again - well, I just have to escape, I run away'.

Why should anyone be interested in listening to you - unless you can make what you have to say interesting both in what you say and how you say it?  Why should I want to spend time with your characters - in your story?

The function of dramatic structure is to orchestrate the audience's emotional experience of your story.  This is what you have to control and master.
